The first edition of this work was published in Florence in 1561 under the care of the author's nephew, Agnolo Guicciardini, and contained sixteen books only. The last four being unfinished, the editor hesitated to publish them, and they were not printed until 1654. The present edition was published by Francesco Sansovino and, like the first, contains only 16 books covering the years 1490-1526.
